In the IMAP case, Mutt has to upload a new copy of the message without
the attachment.  There is no way to edit in place like with local
mailboxes.  Note that in the IMAP case, the From_ line is generated by
the IMAP server, not by Mutt, since the IMAP server can choose to use
several mailbox formats.
